Re: best drum anchor winch

Hi Tonks

Can I ask why you are keen to spend the $s on a winch

Where do you fish

Reason I ask is that I was going to do the same thing as you but when I looked into it I figured

Its a lot of $s
There are easier and quicker ways to get the anchor down
And up
For shallow water do I really need a winch?
For deep water there are anchor retrivers on a float that I can put on and take off the warp as needed.

Not trying to totally talk you out of it there is a big reel set up with a motor on the end of the reel that is quite dear and needs to have specific warp on it I think for you to get the length you want
